AMC Monthly Movies Price Hike: Here's How Your Plan Is Changing

The $2 increase is the second in about 14 months, and AMC says the plan still offers premium-format screenings and other perks.

  • On Wednesday, AMC Theatres announced it is raising the monthly price of its Stubs A-List subscription by $2, effective July 15, marking the second increase in roughly 14 months.
  • AMC CEO Adam Aron explained in a Wednesday email that rising costs of keeping theaters open prompted the increase, noting the company had not adjusted A-List fees in more than a year.
  • Despite the higher cost, A-List benefits remain unchanged, allowing members to watch up to four movies each week in any format, including IMAX, plus waived ticketing fees and free snack upgrades.
  • Frustrated customers expressed concerns on social media, with some considering switching to Regal Unlimited or Alamo Drafthouse, while others criticized the email's long-winded tone before disclosing the price change.
  • The price hike arrives as theater attendance stagnates, with annual domestic box-office grosses down about 20% from pre-pandemic levels, while audiences prepare for releases including "The Odyssey" and "Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
